But how do you really feel?

What about terrified? angry? afraid, relieved, pothered?

Dear Barbara,
How could I have left off 'terrified' and 'afraid'? Thank you, and especially for 'pothered' a new word for me - the rest may be added once I hear if I have been accepted to Graduate school. Hoping for 'relieved'!!
Thanks for looking at my list.

I love feeling words! Here are some (please forgive me if I repeat any above. I'm on my iTouch)
exhilarated, invigorated, peeved, disheartened, dismayed, discombobulated (my fave),

Discombobulated certainly works until I hear about school. More to follow, after word comes.

This as a great list. I work in a prison as a volunteer Chaplain and I sit in circles with convicts who are "encouraged" to check into the group every week with a feeling. I've heard all of these and many more as you might imagine. I have always tried to get them to differentiate between feelings and conditions. Most of them, at first, want to say things like "I'm hungry." or "I'm tired.", which are conditions not feelings. I tell them as a way to get them started to think that most feelings generally fall into 5 or 6 catagories, mad. sad, glad, fear and shame, and then there's Love. It will generally get them to the list you have created.
Thanks
Robert A.
